I have 3.4GHz Dual Core machine with the Zotac NVidia 8400GS 512MB VDPAU card. It's hooked to a 61" Samsung LED DLP 1080p TV. I setup my XBMC box using the instructions at http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=XBMCbuntu. I also followed JumJums procedures and ran his script.
So XBMC loads and runs fine but I'm having a strange issue with 1080p playback. Aren't we all? The video starts playing really smooth. I can see the VDPAU is running fine. The CPUs are barely working. However, the fps begins to drop from 23.5 to 25 (roughly, mostly right at 23.98 and 24) after a few minutes of smooth playback. It drops down to 12.00 to 14.00 or so fps. And of course with the unsteady fps, the pictures stutters.
Here is my log file...

You can look down a bit to where the "Splice" movie starts playing.
I'm well in the weeds with this I'd sure appreciate your expert advice
Thanks everyone,
Mark
